a name for baby ives?

Do you love the movie "chitty chitty bang bang" as much as we do? We have watched it hundreds of times together. (definitely can be classified as a "cozy" movie). One of our favorite song in it is "truly scrumptious". Which is the name of the woman in the movie. Her father owns a candy factory and their last name is scrumptious.

I think if i have a girl I will name her "truly anne (notice the "e") ives", just so that I can sing this song to her. i love it, love it, love it! You know how i always use words like "yummy" and "delicious" to describe babies. How much better is Scrumptious! mmmmmm

Watch the movie clip, and imagine singing to the yummiest little blond blue-eyed baby, "truly scrumptious, your truly truly scrumptious. Scrumptious as a cherry peach parfait. When you're near me, you're so delicious. Honest, truly, you're the answer to my wishes." Followed by lots kisses all over her sweet baby smelling little body.

What do you think?

I think, i will now have a boy, since i really like this name. And I have no boy names. ideas?

This is one of my favorite movies also. I just loved your post and I couldn't think of anything more scrumptious than a little blonde blue-eyed baby. My three little blonde blue-eyed babies are growing so fast but I love how they still all love to cuddle.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE chitty chitty bang bang and I've always loved that name just for the same reason you described! This little baby of yours is going to have beautiful dark hair and olive skin just like mommy! I remember when Grayci was born and she had such dark hair. You told me you always wanted one with dark hair. This one will probably be the one!

Super cute, but what kind of friend am I? I don't even remember seeing chitty chitty bang bang all the way through? your babies are so cute, that Truly would be a perfect name. What fun. I also would like to say that I have a disgusting taste in my mouth and my mouth always feels dry too, so I may be trying your diet dp solution. It sounds delicious!

I still vote for Joshua David. I know that's your nephew's name, but when they are together, you could call your Josh J.D. or just "my Joshy."
